For those looking to reduce fine lines, our treatments for anti-wrinkles on the Gold Coast offer a potential solution. These treatments focus on reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, aiming for a smoother and more relaxed look. At Injectable Effects, our approach is centred on subtle enhancements that respect your individuality if you are a suitable candidate for anti-wrinkle procedures.
What are anti-aging procedures?
Anti-aging procedures are designed to gently relax targeted facial muscles, which can soften the lines that naturally develop over time. This non-invasive approach helps to create a more refreshed appearance without altering your unique facial expressions. The goal is not to transform but to enhance what’s already there.
Areas commonly treated with anti-wrinkle on the Gold Coast
Our anti-wrinkle treatments are versatile, addressing various areas of the face:
Forehead Lines — Horizontal lines on the forehead can often be softened, helping to create a calmer appearance.
Crows Feet — The fine lines around the eyes, often associated with smiling, can be gently reduced, maintaining the warmth of your natural expressions.
Brow Lift — A subtle lift can be achieved in the brow area, opening up the eyes without drastic changes.
Bunny Scrunch — The small lines that appear on the sides of the nose when scrunching up the face can be minimised with anti-wrinkle treatments, keeping the nose area smooth.
Gummy Smile — Anti-wrinkle treatments can help balance the appearance of the gums when you smile.
Jawline Slimming — Targeting specific muscles, this treatment can refine the jawline, offering a more contoured profile.
Marionette Lines (Sagging Jowls) — Anti-wrinkle treatments can help reduce the appearance of sagging jowls and marionette lines, which are the lines that run from the corners of the mouth down to the chin
Mouth Frown & ‘Smokers’ Lines — Vertical lines around the mouth, often called ‘smokers’ lines,’ can be softened, and a downward-turning mouth can be gently lifted with anti-wrinkle injections.
Chin (Dimpled/Popply) — A dimpled or uneven chin can be smoothed out with anti-wrinkle injections, creating a more even and relaxed appearance.
Nec Bands (Platysmal Bands) – Over time, lines or bands may appear on the neck. Anti-wrinkle procedures can help soften these, contributing to a smoother neck area.
Axillary Hyperhidrosis — For those with excessive underarm sweating, anti-wrinkle treatments may offer relief by reducing sweat production.

What to expect during anti-ageing procedures
At Injectable Effects, our clinic offers consultations on reducing the appearance of wrinkles, led by qualified health practitioners. During your consultation, a practitioner will assess your needs, discuss your goals and evaluate whether anti-wrinkle treatment is suitable for you. Depending on the outcome of this consultation, a prescription for treatment may or may not be provided.
Potential side effects of anti-wrinkle treatments
While anti-wrinkle treatments are generally well-tolerated, it's important to be aware of potential side effects. Common reactions include slight redness, swelling or bruising at the injection site. These effects typically resolve within a few hours to a couple of days. Some people may experience mild discomfort during the procedure, but this is usually brief.
In rare cases, more significant side effects can occur. These might include headaches, temporary drooping of the eyelid or brow or asymmetry in facial expressions. It’s important to discuss your medical history and any concerns you may have with our practitioners during your consultation.
If you experience any unexpected or prolonged side effects from anti-wrinkle on the Gold Coast, we encourage you to contact our clinic immediately. We are here to support you throughout your treatment journey and provide any necessary follow-up care.

About Muscle Relaxants
-
Muscle relaxants are a popular cosmetic treatment used to reduce facial lines. They work by blocking signals from nerves to specific muscles, preventing them from contracting. When injected, these muscle relaxants help to smooth out your skin and relax overactive muscles, giving you a more youthful and refreshed appearance.
There are two main types of anti-wrinkle injections in Australia, but due to our laws around medicines, we are unable to mention brand names on public information sites. Please contact us if you would like to know more.
-
The doses of muscle relaxant used for cosmetic purposes are very small and applied to specific areas. It's important to have this treatment administered only by an experienced and qualified healthcare professional to ensure safety and effectiveness.
Any side effects of cosmetic doses of anti-wrinkle are usually restricted to the area of injection and are temporary. These may include bruising, redness, swelling, skin tightness, headache, face pain, muscle weakness or feelings of pins and needles. Occasionally nausea might occur. If you have any questions about specific treatment areas and possible side effects, please get in touch.
-
Muscle relaxants are injected into targeted facial muscles to help them relax. This relaxation allows the skin on top to smooth out, reducing the visibility of fine lines and helping to prevent new ones from forming. The result is a more youthful and refreshed appearance, with smoother and more even skin.
In addition to muscle relaxants, dermal fillers are used to enhance the skin’s volume and contour. Dermal fillers are made from a naturally occurring hydrating sugar gel that is injected into the skin to lift, plump, soften lines, and add volume.
While muscle relaxants and dermal fillers work differently, they are often used together to address various signs of aging. Combining these treatments targets different concerns and helps achieve fresh, natural, and long-lasting results for the entire face.

Our treatments are suitable for anyone over 18 who wants to prevent facial lines (such as frown lines), enhance their features (like a brow lift), or relax overactive muscles (such as the masseters).

If you start to notice that lines remain on your face even when your muscles are relaxed, it may be time to consider treatment. These treatments work best as a preventative measure, so it's ideal to begin before lines become deeply etched into the skin. The average age people start using these treatments is between 26 and 30 years, though some may start younger if they have particularly strong facial muscles.

The main areas we treat include the frown lines, forehead lines, and crow’s feet (around the eyes). Additionally, we offer treatments for a variety of other concerns, such as:
- Axillary hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating)
- Brow lift

- Dimpled or puckered chin

No the actual treatment itself takes 5-10 minutes and can be performed as a ‘lunchtime’ treatment. You are fine to go back to work or get on with your day straight after the treatment.
You’ll leave the clinic with a mild pinkness at each injection site. The skin colour returns to normal 5-20 mins post-treatment. Just no vigorous exercise for 4-6 hours post your treatment. You will be given aftercare advice at the time of your treatment.

Unfortunately, it takes 2-4 days for anti-wrinkle to kick in, and 10-14 days before it’s completely working. Be patient!
At Injectable Effects we like to see you back two weeks after your first treatment with us to ensure the dosage and positioning is perfect for your face. This review is free of charge, however, you will need to pay for additional units if you require them. Everyone is different and each treatment is tailored to the individual.

In Australia, muscle relaxants are classified as prescription medication. Therefore, each client must complete a consent form and undergo a consultation with the prescribing doctor. This consultation is conducted via FaceTime immediately before your first treatment at Injectable Effects. This process ensures client safety and complies with Australia’s strict Food & Drug Laws.
